In Jackson County, Missouri, a story unfolded with the quiet gravity of a courtroom drama, as Samantha Janssen, guided by Lisa R. D’Alesio of The Reynolds Law Firm, LLC, filed for divorce from Kyle Christopher Janssen on March 4, 2025. Their marriage, a brief reel that began June 5, 2021, in Kansas City, flickered out by January 1, 2025, its frame cracked by irretrievable breakdown. Both Missouri residents for over ninety days, they’d shared a home until Samantha stepped across the state line post-split, leaving Kyle rooted in Jackson County.
One child, unnamed but central, ties them—a minor whose custody they propose to share, joint legal and physical, with Samantha’s address as the anchor for school and mail. Property and debts, gathered in their short run, await division; non-marital assets stay separate. No maintenance is sought—both deemed able-bodied, self-reliant. She wants her old name back—Samantha Acacia Chang Rios—a reclaiming of identity. Child support, health coverage, and parenting time loom as practical threads to untangle, all under Missouri’s legal lens.
This filing isn’t a melodrama of betrayal but a measured script—two lives diverging with a kid in the credits, played out with the clarity of a well-lit stage.
